Superstar coach Patrick Mouratoglou knows what it takes to win. An international icon in the world of tennis, he coached Serena Williams for a decade at the height of her career. More recently he’s worked with top-seeded players including Coco Gauff, Stefanos Tsitsipas, Simona Halep, and Holger Rune. Now, in Champion Mindset, Mouratoglou distills his lifetime of coaching excellence into ten commandments that are applicable to achieving success in all aspects of life, not just the court. Because the truth is, tennis is a mental game that is won or lost in the player’s mind, and Mouratoglou’s emphasis on coaching the player’s mindset is both what makes him singularly successful as a tennis coach and also, now, so effective in helping the rest of us reach our goals. He shows us, for example, how to embrace the “Progress Zone”—the opposite of the comfort zone, the progress zone challenges and changes us and keeps us moving forward. He teaches us how to “Modify Your Inner Language” to turn every moment into an opportunity instead of a place to hesitate or doubt our intentions. How to “Take Responsibility for Results”—and really embody it.
In addition to being an extraordinary self-help book in the truest use of that term, Champions Mindset is a gripping personal story in which Coach Patrick reveals his own difficult but rewarding journey. A sickly child who lived an isolated life—he was ridiculed in school and suffered from debilitating shyness—he triumphed, bit by bit, slowly gaining self‑esteem and confidence. And then, for the next nearly 30 years, fashioning the lessons he learned on his own into a program for coaching athletes, helping them realize their dreams while tapping into their immense potential.
And today: sharing those lessons, insights, and experiences of building world-class players into a roadmap to help every reader find their own path to success, however we define it.

"Patrick Mouratoglou is more than my trusted friend. I respect him as a true visionary in the world of tennis and beyond. His book captures the essence of what it takes to succeed at the highest level not just in tennis but in life…. [It] is the perfect tool to help unlock your full potential and cultivate a champion's mentality.”—Mike Tyson
“Patrick has an incredible ability to bring out the best in you.”—Naomi Osaka
“You don’t have to be a tennis player to appreciate this sharply-written book. In it, one of the world’s great coaching minds uses both wisdom from personal experience and his expertise gained on the court to give the reader a practical and inspiring action plan for personal transformation and overcoming obstacles.”—Rainn Wilson
“Patrick Mouratoglou is much more than a coach; he’s a real visionary who has given his life to helping athletes fulfill themselves on and off the court. His wisdom, passion, and belief in overcoming challenges have had a big impact on my journey. I can say his book is a testament for anyone striving for greatness — a reminder that with the right mindset and guidance, even the impossible can be achieved by those who dare to dream.”—Stefanos Tsitsipas
“On the ATP Tour, everyone knows how to play tennis at the highest level. The difference lies in who dares to strike at the right moment and who hesitates. Trusting yourself when it matters most, making fearless decisions—that’s what sets us free on the court and ultimately makes us champions. Patrick has a unique ability to instill that trust and belief in you. It’s one of the many qualities that make him a truly exceptional coach.”—Holger Rune
“Patrick’s passion for tennis is incredible, evident in his vision and ability to communicate. What he’s built in individual players is remarkable.”—Steve Nash
“Patrick’s incredible ability to nurture talent and inspire brilliance on the tennis court is, of course, legendary, but in knowing and working with him over the years, it has been remarkable to witness how much this instinct for success and excellence translates across virtually everything he does—and I’m so thrilled he’s finally put down his secrets between two covers to share with the rest of us."
—Anna Wintour
“Regardless of your endeavor or goals, Champion Mindset offers a game plan for success by focusing on our most challenging opponent: ourselves.”
